<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alurid, post: 20168372, member: 81991&quot;]If&nbsp; the collar die was stuck in a tilted position the next planchet could/would have slipped toward the lower side of the collar die and created a wider rim on that side of the coin as it slid outside the coining chamber, causing it to leave no ribbing on the thick edge and none on the rimless side as it moved away from the collar.&nbsp; I believe it was cause by a stiff/frozen tilted collar which also made it a borderline Off-Center Strike. I Note there are no lines or marks that show the planchet was pinched between the collar die and the hammer die.</p><p>Off-Center caused by stiff/frozen collar die in a tilted position.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
